I’m so excited to have my little container garden included in the first “Share Your Wake Forest Garden” tour! Share Your Wake Forest Garden is a weekend where residential or community gardens are open to neighbors and visitors from our town to stop by just to enjoy, ask questions, and get gardening tips. It takes place Saturday, May 12 from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., and Sunday, May 13 from 1-4 p.m. There are 19 host gardens from all parts of Wake Forest.
Maps will be available the days of the walk at the following sites: Wake Forest Farmers’ Market on Saturday morning, at these host residences both days: 4116 Field Oak Dr. in Majestic Oaks subdivision; 123 Chestnut St. in Mill Village; 112 North Ave. on the corner of N. Main St.; 7205 Pantonbury Pl. in Prestwicke subdivision (off Wake Union Church Rd.); and 8025 Hawkshead Ln. in the Purnell Rd. area.
Mother’s Day is in 3 weeks. And if you are like me, you already know what you want from your hubby and kids. I want this charm for my Pandora bracelet. 
This year, I also want moms to think about giving themselves a gift. And I don’t mean a new handbag or pair of strappy sandals. I’m thinking of a gift that makes a much bigger fashion statement (although I love a nice Big Buddha handbag).
How about giving yourself a healthy, more energetic body?.
Before you click away to read your favorite fashion blog, hear me out.
Even if you are in pretty good shape – I know there is one area of your fitness you want to improve. In the 3 weeks leading to Mother’s Day, we can all focus on these 3 little things we can realistically do every day to make us feel like a fit mom. And if you’re not a mom – that’s ok, still join in! After just a couple of days, you’ll actually see results on the inside, which is really the best place for change to start.
So here’s how we’re gonna get fit for Mother’s Day…..
Starting tomorrow and every day until Mother’s Day take these 3 small steps to get fit:
1. Slip away from sugar. Replace sugar sweetened beverages with water, low or fat-free milk.
2. Get a fresh start. Every morning for breakfast, drink a glass of fresh homemade fruit & vegetable juice.
3. Step up your game. Move at least 8,000 steps daily.
We can do this! I’ll share tips along the way to help you stick with these 3 little steps. Join my mailing list for blog updates.
And I want you to leave comments here to share your progress with us at the end of each day. Take a picture of the number of steps on your pedometer. Share a great juice recipe. Tell us how many glasses of water you drank for the day. Anything you want!! Moms want to know!
So if you’re in…..leave a comment on my blog saying “I’m in! I’m getting fit for Mother’s Day!”
